Hi Robert,

Were the molars previously root canaled?
Did the periodontist warn you ahead of time that there may be a sinus perforation or did he mention a perforation occurred during the extraction?
Is the air coming out of both nostrils?
I really don't know why he wants to put off closing the perforations unless he thinks they will close on their own.??

The best dental specialist to see for extractions of teeth is an oral surgeon. I know money is an issue but that is the type of dentist I would recommend that you go to for an evaluation. You would need to either bring your xrays or have them sent to the oral surgeon prior to your visit with him.

Please keep us posted.
